Reviews

The Stress Management Handbook is one of the best books on the subject I've reviewed. It clearly demonstrates the reality of the mind-body-spirit connection, and how our thinking, belief systems, and emotions can make us ill. Holistic practitioners would do well to integrate these stress reduction strategies into their armamentariums - it might be the most important preventive medicine they can give their patients. This book is several degrees above most "self-help" books in providing a solid scientific basis for the efficacy of non-drug stress reduction strategies. One of the virtues of The Stress Management Handbook is the research-based and comprehensive presentation of the many ways in which we can learn to improve our health and happiness.

A real down-to-earth, practical and easy-to-read book on stress. It's full of valuable, up-to-date information. I highly recommend it..

The days of treating the symptom rather than the cause are quickly fading. Most progressive practitioners know that body, mind and spirit must all be addressed to promote healing. That's why The Stress Management Handbook should be required reading for all on the journey to health and wellness.

This inspiring book is truly a "handbook" to be read, re-read and shared. Lori's methods helped me to drastically improve the quality of my life.

I believe Ms. Leyden-Rubenstein has developed one of the most important strategies for dealing with stress, inner peace and fulfillment, which is: identifying and dealing with what I am telling myself about myself and the situations I find myself in. This is having a profound impact in my life, as I am opening up to new ways of being and experiencing life that are beyond anything I previously imagined.

The Stress Management Handbook is truly lifegiving! It has helped me see problems that I was unconsciously and repeatedly creating in my life. From this book, I learned how to replace old habits that were not serving me with ways that enrich my life, to empower myself and to take back the real and joyous me!
